Post by: Ddan on September 09, 2011, 01:21:22 AM that's a supermoto bike with much wider bars than most sport bikes video http://www.ridexperience.com/2011/09/rudy-bauer-drags-his-handlebars/ (http://www.ridexperience.com/2011/09/rudy-bauer-drags-his-handlebars/) Yep, that has nothing at all to do with lean angle. ;) I think draggin your helmet is more impressive [bow_down] Fast forward to the 1:00 time mark.

Post by: Novelo on September 09, 2011, 08:41:12 AM was that guy wearing a ghille suit? It's the new Tactical riding gear it improves stealthiness on sunny days. On a more related topic Supermoto's are the funnest thing on two wheels below 70mph. I get to ride my brothers SXV550 every now and then I turn into a hyperactive school boy who can't sit still [Dolph] Title: Re: Handlebar dragging...
